It has come to the League’s attention that MDOT’s IT Security Office will not allow JobNet access for requests that do not have a valid Email address. MDOT’s IT security considers a email address to be valid when it has:

• The users name or an abbreviated version of their name as the username section (first part)
• And an organization as the domain (second part)
• The ending of .com, .org, .gov, or.net does not matter

Email address that have a job title as the username are also considered invalid as well as public domains such as Yahoo and Gmail.

Any questions should be directed to Josh Grab, RTF / RPA Program Manager, Statewide Planning Section. He can be reached at (517) 335-2973 or [email protected].

John LaMacchia is the Assistant Director of State and Federal Affairs for the League handling transportation, infrastructure, energy and environment issues. He can be reached at [email protected] or 517-908-0303.
